Ready or not, holiday shopping season is upon us. Black Friday, Cyber Monday and month-long deals are about to be in full swing.
We’ve found some sweet deals on Chromebooks, Chromecast, surround sound and even cast-enabled TVs and we wanted to share.
Walmart
If you’re looking for a dirt-cheap deal on a Chromebook that will soon support Android apps, look no further.
The Samsung Chromebook 3, regularly priced at $230, will go on sale at Walmart for the crazy low price of $119!
Now, that is an amazing price. Over $100 off retail makes this a pretty sweet deal, indeed.
The Samsung 3 isn’t going to be a computing powerhouse by any stretch of the imagination. But, if you’re looking for a Chromebook you can do some light browsing on and take advantage of the Play Store, this will do the trick without making a dent in your wallet.
Sale lasts Nov. 24-25. Details at Walmart.com.
Best Buy
These guys have deals for almost all your Chrome needs.
Like many retailers, Best Buy is offering the Google Chromecast (2nd generation) for $25.
The Samsung Chromebook 3 is on sale here as well. While not the steal that Walmart is offering, at $139 it’s still a savings of $90.
Maybe you’re looking for a Chromebook as a gift and really want to stay under $100. You can grab the Lenovo 100S for $99. That’s $100 of retail.
If you’re looking for something a little more powerful and significantly more versatile, the Acer Chromebook R11 will be a cool $199. That’s $80 off for a touchscreen convertible that already has access to the Google Play Store and over 1 million Android Apps.
The hottest Black Friday deal comes not in the form of a Chromebook but a 49″ 4K Toshiba LED TV with built-in Chromecast. The cost of 4K television has been steadily decreasing but this price is insane.
$199!!!
That’s CRAZY for any 4K television. So, if you’re willing to camp out and fight the crowd, doors open at 5 p.m. Thanksgiving day. Good luck.

Costco
This wholesale club has become a favorite of ours around the office. Our recently acquired Asus C301SA came from here and we were pleasantly surprised to find out they offer a concierge service that adds an additional year of warranty to most computing devices.
As a matter of fact, the 32GB Asus is on sale right now for $269. Not bad for a device with a premium look and a great screen.
Costco started their holiday sales last week and update new items weekly leading up to Black Friday.
If you’re looking for some sweet sounds and built-in Google Cast, the Vizio SmartCast sound bar may be right down your alley. Starting Nov. 18th, the 5.1 channel sound system – including a wireless subwoofer – is $100 off the suggested retail of $399.
Last, but in no way least, we have an all-aluminum Acer Chromebook 14. Costco is currently selling this sleek-looking Chromebook for $294 as a combo with an included Acer mouse.
Starting the 24th you can pick it up for a cool $65 off. That lands you a 14″ aluminum Chromebook rocking an Intel Celeron N3160,4GB ram, 32 GB of storage and 1080p IPS display. And they toss in the bonus Acer mouse all for $230.
